I'm sure he could Jez, only issue is the way he mounts the front part off his tie bar bracket which you won't have, well not unless you want a kit ;) lol
I all ready have custom tie bars etc but im sure that my tie bars would fit his front bkts if you get what i mean

Apologies if you ve been through this before as I have had time to go through the whole build, but what have you used to fit them, we had previously thought about trying to match VW/audi parts.
e mail me on pipnwal@btinternet.com with your mobile number and I ll call you if you are happy to discuss it.

Hi Walt,
Thanks for the kind words, the car is owned and built by a friend of mine, its been a long time coming but is actually ready for mapping now so he is quite excited.
The output flanges are specific to the Hewland differential the gearbox uses, there is no reason why you could not have some made up to use a a joint of your choice, it would just cost a fair bit, I seem to remember someone else saying the output flanges are £300 a side, that may of been a pair, I'd have to check but bespoke ones I'd imagine would cost more again.
The shafts that came with the gearbox were for the Vectra Supertourer it came out of, he has since had some made to suit the nova which are the correct spline for the lobro inners and big block Vauxhall on the outer, he also runs the Grp A type knuckles with Audi bearings which hopefully should be more than strong enough.
I know a few people that could make the output flanges for you, they would be made to suit whatever lobro to choose to use then you would need a custom shaft, I'd certainly go with the larger outer cv's and flanges as well.
I'll fire you over a email tomorrow with my number
Cheers
